I am standing here
I ain't making a sound
I'm overcoming the fear in my mind
I have forgotten my name
I have forgotten the time
I'm in a moment that grips me from all around

Then suddenly her eyes open to mine
Her cry of joy just so divine
And I know this day will remain in our minds

And we are the ones to make this
And we will be there in everyway
Until she grows up someday

I was never ready for this
Yet something I couldn't change
All the doubts in my mind
Have just faded away

I am standing here
I ain't making a sound
I've overcome the fear in my mind
